British Pact

A massive bureaucracy with some convoluted democratic elements. The British Pact was one one of the great powers, from its founding after The European Resource War, until The Great Pulse, and even then it still left a legacy in British Europa, and in The Congregatio.

History

It was originally founded by Britain after The European Resource War as a way to create a hegemony over the other weak European states. As Europe started to adapt to climate change and started to become stable, Britian still made sure to hold a tight grasp on them. This became particularly important when Britain can in contact with the Arab Union the head of The Central Order who soon became the British pact's rival. As the two organizations grew the tension became more heated. Skirmishes between the two countries became common and the threat of nuclear weapons was omnipresent. As technology improved, so did sending people to space, and soon the two countries were competing to colonize the solar system. Along with The Central Order, the Brazilian Federation, started to create their own colonies, entering the competition.This period was known as The Solar Race. Eventually politics began to settle and relations improved creating an era of peace known as the The Solar Expansion Age in which humanity thrived throughout the solar system. This didn't last and soon tensions rose once again starting The First Sol War. The official British Pact ended when The Great Pulse hit destroying the once great empire.

Judicial Body

The judicial and executive systems are bureaucratic jungles of well meaning checks and balances pared with some institutionalize nepotism disguised in a legal mess. Either way, it is really the military and British political parties who gets what they want, everything else is for running day to day matters or just bells and whistles. The Council of Administration (British Pact), is considered to be the highest authority for civilian judicial matters. Although they don't take on court cases themselves, they do appoint judges and will advise courts if needed.
